Theory of the #P_wave_detection

The algorithm first finds the  the possible positive and negative wave peaks
based on zero transition searching, then validates them with comparing
to reference P waves.

The P wave detection needs high amplitude resolution. This value is better,
than 0.6 uV / bit in the Cardiospy system.  With this resolution and
the effective filter system which uses wavelet transformation,
the Cardiospy system is able to detect P waves less than 50 uV of amplitude.

Validation of the P wave detector

The validation is carried out on 10 pcs 12 channel and 10 pcs 3 channel ECG
reference records. The reference records include the P wave  annotation.  12
of the 20 records are taken from the MitBih database, 8 records are
taken from the Labtech database (30000 ? 30007).
